LHERMITT’S SIGN

Abstract

Lhermitte’s sign (LS) is one of the sensory injuries of the spinal cord which is frequent in some demyelinating diseases. The sign refers to a transient electric-shock like sensation and sometimes tingling or buzzing in the neck that runs down the spine and into limbs. It is triggered by movement including the flexion and rarely by extension or rotation of the neck, walking and bending and even sometimes it is spontaneous and can be attend by a sense of intend pain.1, 2 Although LS is not limited to MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS (MS), it is highly prevalent in MS and other similar demyelinating disorders e.g. NEUROMYELITIS OPTICA (NMO).3 This cross-sectional study was conducted in Isfahan MS Society (IMSS) from April 2003 to July 2010. This study aimed to inspect the prevalence of LS among MS and NMO patients. All the patients were asked for the history of LS at presentation or during subsequent clinical surveillance. LS was considered to be positive if a transient electric shock sensation, tingling, rippling or other feelings had travelled rapidly along the neck and limbs.3
